Hi Stephan,
Thanks for your reply.
After some more tests, it appears that mail aliases is the reason of
this error. The vacation mode has been enabled on a mailbox that
contains many aliases and one of them has been used as the recipient.
We used dovecot 2.0.12-0~auto+5 from debian old-stable repo. Is there
anything we can do ?
If you can access the original recipient from your MTA, you can use
both -a and -r (if needed) arguments of dovecot-lda as outlined on
this wiki page:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LDA
This will make the vacation command perform the checks against the
original recipient.
Please let me know whether this is an adequate solution for you.
Hmm, apparently this was not possible yet, so I've added it now:
http://hg.rename-it.nl/dovecot-2.0-pigeonhole/rev/81f7acac82f2
This also adds support to disable this check completely (as explained in
doc/vacation.txt). I recommend using that only when all other methods fail.
I've still got some more TODO items about this issue, particularly about
adding support to check some external aliases database. I am still not
sure how I should approach that though.
Regards,
Stephan.
